24 Oct '02

A new package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and it should soon make its way to your favorite mirror. Thanks for the upload, Jim Hefferon ftpmaint(a)tug.ctan.org ===================================================================== The following information was provided by our fellow contributor. Name of contribution: brokent1 Author's name: Torsten Bronger Location on CTAN: fonts/brokent1 Summary description: The typefaces yfrak, yswab, and ygoth in T1 encoding License type: lppl Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package provides virtual fonts for T1-like variants of the broken typefaces published in 1990 by Yannis Haralambous, namely yfrak, yswab, and ygoth. Additionally, this package embeds these fonts nicely into LaTeXe's font selection scheme. The structure of this package allows for further broken typefaces from other sources to be made usable for LaTeX in a similar way, too. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

announcing frenchle and French Pro V5.08
by Rainer Schoepf 21 Oct '02

21 Oct '02

I'm sending this on behalf of Bernard Gaulle Rainer Schöpf ------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is just a little announce for the new version 5.08 of the frenchle (LPPL) package and of the frenchpro (shareware) package for LaTeX. The first one was released weeks ago but never announced. The last one was a little delayed for Windows but is now quite ready with a complete unix-like installation procedure. Major changes in the installation makefiles for Unix and MacOS X. All this stuff will go their way through the CTAN servers in few hours or days. --bg
